Tesla’s existing models are going to only detect whether the steering wheel is rotating, so Tesla requires car owners to adjust the steering wheel frequently after turning on the Autopilot mode.

This vulnerability has also spawned various cheating tools. Tesla owners can trick Autopilot’s driver-monitoring system by sticking a water bottle in the steering wheel, or buying some custom-made devices to apply some pressure. NHTSA even had to intervene to ban the sale of such devices.
